JOURNALIST: Were you pleased to hear of the balance of
payments figures today?
PM: Well, they were certainly at the lower end of
expectations, so that was good. But you can't, you know,
can't read a final story into one month's figures, but we'd
rather have them there than at the higher end of the range.
Yes, that's true.
JOURNALIST: Do you rule out an election this year, Prime
Minister? PM: Gee, you don't take long do you? No, I've got nothing
to add to what I've said before on that.
JOURNALIST: Do you agree with Treasurer Keating's statement
that interest rates may not come down before June next year?
PM: I want to see the whole context of his statement.
